Invest in women. Unlock the future.

What We Do

WEA equips women with the skills and tools they need to protect our earth and strengthen communities from the inside out. We work with local leaders who build up other leaders. In some of the most threatened places on earth, WEA partners are:

How We Do It

With local leadership guiding each WEA project, we design capacity-building trainings where women access skills and tools in appropriate technology, entrepreneurship, and advocacy. They gain seed funding, mentorship, and a global alliance.

With these resources in hand, participants go on to launch their own environmental projects and teach others to do the same. Not only are lands healing but women and their families are healing too. Read about WEA’s growing impact around the world.

Art of resistance is here! In this watershed moment for women's rights and women-led movements, our RESIST prints and postcards invites you to stand with WEA and our partners around the world who resist violence and destruction and build solutions that protect our communities, our future generations, and our Earth.

The WEA blog is your go-to home for regular updates from our team both here and abroad, as well as relevant news and stories of women's environmental leadership around the world. Be sure to check back regularly!

WEA has partnered with the United Religions Institute to launch The Ripple Academy, an innovative collaboration aimed at unleashing a global cadre of women leaders allied to forge and amplify solutions for peace, justice, and environmental healing in communities around the world.
